GameSpot Talks Servo and Ashes of the Singularity
GameSpot is taking a look at a couple of upcoming strategy games, including Servo. They had a sit down with Bruce Shelley and Dave Pottinger from BonusXP to get an idea of just what Servo is all about:
"You do command your servo(s), of course, but base-building is still an important component. You and your enemies are fighting over a resource called bloom, which you collect from the bloomwells that dot the combat arena. To utilize that resource and build a small army of drones, healing beacons, and defensive turrets, you order structures to be dropped onto the map from the heavens above. Says Pottinger, "An RTS for us, it's about buildup. It's a shorter buildup, and it's compressed, and it's more automated, but it's still there. If I want to go heavy on drones, for instance, I'm going to need thousands of resources to pump into that...." -GameSpot
